...Achievement Center in Chicago, I tutored middle school students for a year and high school students for two years to improve academic performance by setting semester-long and weekly academic goals, social-emotional learning goals, and improving study habits.

Outside of academics I like to do pottery, play basketball, and watch Netflix (though they recently removed all my favorite shows). I...

In simplest terms, my teaching philosophy is that students do well if they can. It can be difficult as a...

As a person that math and science come easily too I love to help others have a better understanding of it.

...and adjust my methods accordingly. My second experience mentoring comes directly from teaching English to children of all ages in Oudong, Cambodia. Due to my limited understanding of the local language and teaching multiple levels of English at once, I was compelled to be creative to ensure all of my students understood our lessons. I developed lesson plans around the curriculum that featured games, singing, and dancing, finding alternative methods of expressing meaning to be...
